Benjamin walked into Hunter x Hunter chapter 416 with a gun in his hand and a clock running out in his body, and by the end of it fans were already refreshing their feeds for the next update. Chapter 417 is the chapter that has to answer what actually happened in that room.
Special Martial Law is now in effect across the Black Whale, soldiers are herding civilians between tiers, and Benjamin pushed straight into Camilla’s territory with Furykov and Butch backing him up. He’s not hiding his motive either.
The TSK-17 virus is going to take him out in a matter of hours, so he’s spending what’s left of his time trying to eliminate as many rival princes as possible before it does. Tserriednich, meanwhile, is sitting on an ability that lets him see roughly ten seconds ahead of everyone else in the room, which means the confrontation fans think just happened may not have gone the way it looked.
Hunter x Hunter Chapter 417 Release Date and Time
Chapter 417 is set to be released in Japan on Monday, August 10, 2026, which lines up with Sunday, August 9, for most international readers. That keeps the seven-day gap intact following chapter 416’s August 3 drop, and VIZ has not flagged any break in the schedule.

VIZ and MANGA Plus will carry the official English translation the moment it publishes, running alongside the Japanese release in Weekly Shonen Jump. Togashi has reportedly kept a manuscript buffer running well ahead of the current release, which is a big part of why this stretch of chapters has stayed on a steady weekly cadence instead of stalling out again.
Expect chapter 417 to pick up the fallout from Benjamin’s move on Camilla and explore whether Tserriednich’s trick actually worked.
